The book presents new scholarship on the Saratoga Battlefield, with a special focus on archaeology and the contributions of those archaeologists who have investigated key areas of the battlefield. The Saratoga Campaign: Uncovering an Embattled Landscape is an original and multifaceted contribution to our understanding of this critical event in America’s birth.  While the focus of the book is on the battles that took place in September and October 1777 at Saratoga, the volume also presents some of the rich history of the region both before and after the Revolutionary War.
